Dynamo newbie here, trying to find a way to automate naming a bunch of family types.
So far I managed to write it for one singular type. You still have to type it manually if you want to change anything.
How could I automate it further to take just the first 3 items from every list?
"Lenght"+" x "+"Width", and delete any other suffixes....
Thanks for any help ..read more

Hello, everyone!
I am new to Revit and I wanted to know if there is a way to add a "skin" or a second layer over the walls - say I have a 250mm wall as the actual structure and then I want to add a 100mm layer that represents insulation and is a different material/texture from the wall. It needs to be separate from the wall because this layer sometimes goes around the outside perimeter of balconies and sometimes it switches texture/materials in the middle of the same wall.
I have uploaded a picture to provide an example of what I mean by second layer or "skin".
Thank you for your time ..read more

Hi you guys.
I m working at fire detection family, but i can't do the same mask at the annotation i've done in the outlets family.
In the outlets family i used a region mask to hide my conduits that pass near the annotation, this way i can show my symbol just right in the floor plan sheet.

We have a family that is a floor based generic model family, it has an extrusion dropping down through the floor to show where the pipework is required through the slab. When we create a view in the project of the level below and extend the view range so that it includes this extrusion the whole family becomes visible and not just the extrusion.
Basically we want to see the pipe drops from above but don't want to see the whole family but i cant seem to get it to work ..read more

A quick follow up post on my prior post about deleting toposolid points. Scott Brown isolated the issue his team was having to their use of a 3rd Party tool called Guardian. When they disabled it they could delete points as expected again. If your firm uses Guardian too then check in with them about an update to see if it has been resolved yet.
